Hello welcome back to my channel! I'm Mong, for those that you don't know. Today I
have a Korean haul for you guys. It took me one year to return back to Seoul and
I just loved Korea so much! You guys know that I'm super into Korea and last year I
actually went to Korea six times. Unfortunately like I haven't really had
the opportunity all the time to go back that often so this time I decided to
give myself a birthday treat. I did so with my best friend Sarah and she was
there with me in Seoul, we spent a lovely three days there. I just didn't care
about work at all. I did have an Instagram highlight that is pinned up for you
guys on my Instagram account so for those of you who are interested to see
the places that I went, the things I did in Seoul especially the Cafes, you guys
can here go to my Instagram @Mongabong and check out the highlights. I
spent quite a bit of money but it's also because I kind of just accumulated the
things that I wanted to buy like throughout the whole year. I went in there and went
crazy ~ alright! let's get started! First thing first
I'm gonna talk about the earrings I bought. This one is a pair I got from
this shop. It is in Hongdae I did feature the shop on my
Instagram stories highlight so if you are interested please go there and check
it out. It has like pearls and they look like grapes. Like pearl grapes so I
thought they are really really dainty and beautiful. And I love Korea's jewelry
because the styles are often very dainty and very classic and elegant. And at the
same time the quality is good but it's not too expensive. So this was around
like $15 Sing dollars which wasn't the cheapest but honestly I haven't really
seen anything that is so pretty. The thing about the accessories there is that
even though there are like a ton of jewelry shops around, they don't really
sell the exact same things. I've got these...
they are super dainty and small. I got them from forever 21 and I got them for
about 3 bucks which was super cheap. So I like that it's very very small and
dainty and it's very light. The only downside is that the quality is really bad so I
think I can't get that much wear out of it, probably just another 5 to 10 more times
and it's just gonna break. The next pair of earrings I got were these really
beautiful dome ones, like they look like tortoise shells but they are kind of
made into these kind of hexagonal shape. The address of the place is here it is
in Insa-Dong and I paid 12,000 won for this that brings it up to about 15
Sing dollars. But I really like it for this I think it looks very fall
appropriate. it's just very unique, look at that! I got this from the shop "Made in Pink"
I got a few makeup products just to try
out new products and to stock up. I always watch Korean youtubers and they
always rave about the Too Cool for School Art Class by Rodin contour. It has
like three different brown shades and comes in a package like this. Think I do
like it but honestly the payoff is so so so sheer, which I understand it's the
Korean trend like they don't like to over contour but for me your girl's
face is big so I just want it to be small. I still prefer my Hoola Bronzer from
Benefit and all of my American you know bronzers as compared to this but even
though it's sheer, it's very easy to blend. You do not get that muddy or like
you know too brown or orange kind of tone. it's very very cool and natural
which is good for all skin tones. If you are into that kind of natural Korean look, you can go for that.
This is the Etude House Brow Volume Volumizer.
Got it because I honestly was just trying to hit the tax rebate spending as usual.
It is a brow volumizer so it has like fibers in it and it also acts as a
brow tint so it kind of just tints your brows and makes it to the color to match
your hair and what not but at the same time it
helps to make your brows look fuller and thicker and just keep them in place.
I'm using it today I like it that is a two-in-one kind of product and I got it
in the shade 02 natural brown. This was about 10 11 Singh dollars which is
pretty affordable I also went to Innisfree Tintin and I got two single
shadows after watching youtubers obviously I really liked the industry
packaging it is so minimal and just really really chic and nice so these
were pretty cheap they were going at 30% off on top of that really cheap price
tag it was not going 5k one that he buzzes off on that so I paid about like
5 bucks for one this is the glitter shadow just not sure wow wow oh my god
this is the shade 12 the shine is actually pretty subtle but I really like
it to put it in the middle of my eyelid and I also got a neutral brown color
this is in the shade 19 goes so I decided to stock up on my color my brows
and I bought two of them because they are so much cheaper over than Korea it's
about 6,000 won each at industry as I've got this really interesting product this
is called my drop water moisture it is like a little dropper thing that you add
to your foundation here I'm just going to show you basically this has like an
essence kind of texture I tried it out for like two days consecutively in Korea
but I honestly didn't really feel that there was much of a difference if
anything it didn't make my foundation kind of separate a little bit so I'm
still trying to find ways to make this work maybe it will work really really
well with the Innisfree my foundation which is the one that it comes together
with this was 10,000 won which is about 12 Singh dollars which wasn't too
expensive I also got this one I've always seen this brand Lily By Red
floating around YouTube and I just decided to get it for myself this is the
skinny mes brow pencil it's 1.5 mm which is really really
really thin I think it's very very similar to benefit precisely my brow and
also the Anastasia Beverly Hills brow Wiz. so this was only 7000 won which is
about 9 sing dollars which is very very very affordable. and I just love the
entire range of Lily by Red it it's just so trendy I also got this lipstick
this from the brand I'm Me Me this is the tik-tock lipstick satin it's very cute
it has like a heart shaped tip like this. I got the shade #7 I asked you guys on
Instagram which color should I go for seven or eight and a lot of you guys
said seven but honestly it was a very very close and when I wanted to buy
both it was actually sold out so I was like "okay... it's God's way of telling me
that i should actually go with shade #7." so I bought it and that's not
the best part. the best part was after I bought it immediately my mom sent a
photo over of a parcel that I'm Me Me sent over to my house and inside there are
all eight shades of this lipstick so YAY i got 2 and in fact all 8 shades!
I really like the formula it is very very smooth and creamy. it is like a bullet
lipstick kind of texture. Satin but at the same time it stains your lips so
it's very long-lasting but it is not dry.
I got myself three pairs of the Arituam
Idol lash in #2 petite volume. you guys know how much I like
this so every single time I go to Korea I will make sure to pick up and stock up
as much as I can. they come in this kind of box and it looks really nice and
wispy I like that it's clear band so it's actually really natural for those of you
who like your eyes to look wider I would recommend this lashes because it
kind of just does it in a way that's for effortless but just very pretty at the
same time. A box of three 8000 won is about $11 sing
dollars which is the most cheap. if you do the math is
about $3+ almost $4 per pair but you can actually use them quite a lot
because quality is really good. So of course when you go to Korea you've got
to make a trip to Olens because they have like the best best
lenses in terms of aesthetic. I've got a really really dry eyes so sometimes they
are not super comfortable for me but when it comes to the design, the opacity,
the colors it's just super nice. and the best part Black Pink is now the face of
Olens and they are also the ambassador for this particular series
called Spanish. so of course I had to get it because my dear Jennie wore it this in this
color as well. alright so this is Spanish grey
this is dailies it costs about 30 Sing dollars for a box of 20 so that's 10
pairs. Not the cheapest I also got this one called Symphony it's also worn by one
of Black Pink girls and this is monthly. this is in the shade Symphony hazel
hopefully it will look very very nice and very natural. I also got this one
called Crush, 3 con silicone hydrogel three color contact lens, this one is grey
so it looks like this. I will let you guys know after I try them out for
myself. I also got this one called Falling In Love in Choco so this kind is
actually very very natural as you can see, it's just like a rim. It won't actually
really change the color of it it's just gotta give you a very very nice like rim
around your eyes . Let me just show you guys the lenses that I've got from Japan
as well because I did fly over from Japan to Korea so I'm just gonna include my
Chou Chou lenses that I bought from Japan Donki Quijote.
They look like this ~These are in the shade Fresh Lime.
I also stocked up on my Etude House Ceramide Mask.
these are like your 1000 won kind of mask which you can use daily and honestly
out of of like the Korean drug stores - so innisfree, etude house, seam, faceshop etc
When it comes to their 1000 won masks, I highly highly recommend Etude House ones
ones because I feel that they are like the most effective for the same
price and their range is amazing and huge. You do not feel like you just
did nothing to your skin. I highly recommend theseEtude House masks.
When you go to Korea they are often one plus one so you get 20 pieces for the price of 10.
Let's not forget the clothes behind me! I did buy a few clothing items this time in Korea.
First one is this knit sweater that I got for like on a sale at Forever 21
It just looks like a very beautiful periwinkle blue kind of cable knit material
It's just really really good for winter. and when I go to winter
countries I don't know why I just get very impractical and start buying winter
clothes because I got so inspired by looking at all the girls and I'm like "maybe I can
make that work in Singapore" but that never ever happens so please do not
trust yourself when you're there. I got myself a new coat this is how it looks
like. It is a very nice felt material and in a gorgeous teal color. I got this
for 29,000 won which brings it up to about $35 Sing which was
not expensive at all and it's just very very beautiful. It is a very very good
piece for layering I love this color because you can wear it with your white,
you can wear it browns, you can wear with your pastel colors and you just look so
like sweet you know. And I just think it's such a unique color that I don't
own in my wardrobe which is why I bought it
Lastly I also got this top when I was
shopping in Hongdae and I just thought it looked really
really nice and very Muji. It's just a very nice layering piece because of the
like sack kind of material. It looks like this it's very oversized the color is
just so flattering on my skintone and I just like that it's a very elegant and
effortless kind of piece that would style really well with so many different pieces.
